"Zong Lin" chronic death

Six years have passed.

Six years is enough for many, many people to forget many, many people, and enough for many, many people to remember many, many people more and more deeply.

"I like you, Matsuoka!"

Matsuoka Rin stared blankly at the slightly childish face in front of him, completely frightened by what his master said.

It is now during the World Swimming Championships in Fukuoka, Japan.Today's daytime competitions are all over, and Rin Matsuoka is about to leave. This time, without exception, he also met a bunch of athletes who wanted to get to know him.And now the one who came to him—Ralph Green from England—actually threw out a confession that was nothing less than a bomb.

"This guy is a bit too much, we just said that we want to be friends with Matsuoka."

Facing the doubts from other athletes, Ralph just glanced at them with a completely dismissive attitude.The young man's only thing on his mind right now is to confide his endless love to the person in front of him.

"I've heard of your name since I was in high school, but I really discovered everything about you from the last World Championships, when I entered our national team for a little over a week. I walked in with confidence, because I am a beta, a beta who has the highest title of an athlete. But after I joined the team, I discovered that there are so many swimmers around me who are better than me. Fast people, even the teammates left behind are of such a high level, then those seniors who represent the national team must be unimaginably good. I started to feel very frustrated. If I was an alpha instead of a beta, would I become Is it easier to go up? At that time, I saw the news about you fighting for power for omega. I was deeply impressed. An omega can do this, so why is it impossible for me? So from then on, I began to work towards the goal of being qualified to represent my country in the world. On the one hand, it was for my own dream. See."

"Well, I'm glad to be your motivation..."

Matsuoka Rin replied, but was forced to take a few steps back by the scorching gaze of this young boy who was almost ten years old.

What kind of love is this!Obviously it's just fans' excessive worship of idols!

— he growled inwardly.

Fortunately, this golden pole fan still listens to the idol.After Rin Matsuoka politely declined a few words, Ralph stopped stalking, but he still insisted on asking for Rin Matsuoka's Skype account.

20:30 Tokyo time.

"Sousuke, I'm coming in."

He raised his hand and knocked twice on the half-hidden door, then Matsuoka Rin pushed the door open and walked into the room.

Since six years ago, after all the troubles were resolved, his relationship with Yamazaki Sousuke has officially turned from underground to above ground.Every game, when booking a room, Ishikawa Kyotaro will specially book a double room for them.When asked, "Aren't you afraid that the two of them will do something to affect the state of the game?", Ishikawa Kyotaro just smiled, expressing his belief in the self-control of these two people.

Facts have proved that such a thing as self-control is not like the snow on Mount Fuji, which does not melt all year round.Under certain conditions, it is entirely possible that it will fall apart.

"Hey! You do—wait—"

Obviously, Sousuke Yamazaki gave Matsuoka Rin the time to let Matsuoka Rin take a breather, but Matsuoka Rin questioned the timing of his breath.So Yamazaki Sousuke didn't give Matsuoka Rin any more chances. He slammed the door shut with his hand, then pulled the man's arms and pressed them directly against the wall, and kissed his half-open lips without saying a word.

"Zong... um... Sousuke..."

Different from the countless kisses he had had before, this time the kiss of Yamazaki Sousuke seemed extremely forceful, even a little rough.His tongue broke in like no one's land, stimulating every fragile and sensitive nerve.Matsuoka Rin resisted for a while, but let himself be tied even tighter.When the corners of his eyes were no longer dry, this overly intense kiss ended.

"Well, what are you doing for a sudden kiss..."

Matsuoka Rin wiped the corners of his eyes vigorously, complaining and dissatisfied in his tone.

Yamazaki Sousuke's eyes fell on Matsuoka Rin from beginning to end, and it took a long time before he sighed helplessly.

"You were confessed today."

Geek!

Matsuoka Rin's heart beat faster, and immediately, the villain who lived in his heart curled his lips in disdain.

Sure enough, the speed of gossip is always the fastest.

"Well, yes, I was confessed by a guy who was eight or nine or ten years younger than me."

"It turns out that the age group of your fans has expanded so widely."

The change that that press conference brought to Matsuoka Rin's life was not only the ability to participate in the competition frankly and generously, but also the terrifyingly high popularity.Rin Matsuoka is welcomed by the world-this is a good thing for Sousuke Yamazaki; lovers are welcomed by the world-this is not a good thing for Sousuke Yamazaki.

"Sousuke."

"What's up?"

"Tell me and try it."

What is Rin planning again?

Although he couldn't understand Rin Matsuoka's proposal, Sousuke Yamazaki still did not refuse.I saw his eyes were deep, and there was a faint trouble between his brows and eyes, but it was a kind of happy trouble mixed with deep love and affection.

"I love you."

I love you.

This is such a vulgar and time-tested confession.

"What's wrong?"

"do not move."

Even though he didn't understand why Matsuoka Rin suddenly grabbed his arm and buried his head in his arms, Yamazaki Sousuke stopped obediently, stopped moving, and quietly listened to the muffled voice like warm water. voice.

"Sure enough. Sousuke, whether it's "like" or "love", only the confession from your mouth can make me feel special."

"cold……"

After being surprised, Yamazaki Sousuke laughed softly.He thought, his Rin is really smart, that's why he pointed out the problem as soon as he made a move, and he dispelled all his jealousy and anxiety with only simple words.

He hopes that this sense of security can also be given back to Rin Matsuoka.

After washing up, the two curled up under the covers and watched TV.

Looking at it, Matsuoka Rin remembered one thing.

"Sousuke, what did you think about what I mentioned to you earlier?"

"What's up?"

"For a long time, you didn't take it to heart at all?"

Rin Matsuoka turned his head angrily.Yamazaki Sousuke was stunned by his stare, and after a long while, he shook his head twice.

Meaning: I forgot.

It's useless to stare fiercely, Matsuoka Rin can only turn his head back.His eyes were indeed facing the direction of the TV, but the focus of his eyes was not on the TV.

"Songsuke, this World Championships is the last professional swimming competition I will participate in. The day of the closing ceremony is also the day I officially retire. I have achieved success and I have nothing to regret. As for the arrangements after retirement, I think I'll probably get a job with swimming, although the bonus pay is good, but I still can't live off the bonus. So, Sousuke, what's your plan? You're still young, Tatsuno Mister also seems to like you very much, from my point of view, he may be planning to pass on the position of team doctor to you after he retires in a few years."

"Really? I'm afraid it's not very good. There are many team doctors who are older and more experienced than me. Why should I climb on top of them overnight?"

"I said, why are you underestimating yourself?"

Matsuoka Rin simply got up, turned around, and faced Yamazaki Sousuke, with his back straight.

"Whether you can take over the position of team doctor from Mr. Tatsuno depends on your personal ability. Since you have this ability, you should have confidence in yourself."

"Oh, let's talk about it later."

talk about it later!Let's talk about it later!

No matter how many times he asked, Yamazaki Sousuke's answer would always return to "I'll talk about it later", which made Matsuoka Rin so angry.Concerned about Yamazaki Sousuke's future whereabouts, I am afraid that no one can match Matsuoka Rin.

For Matsuoka Rin, the past six years have been joyful and hearty.After unloading the psychological burden, he exploded with even more astonishing potential, winning the short course world championships, long course world championships, Asian Games, Olympic Games, the four Grand Slams in the Asian swimming world.For his dream, Matsuoka Rin no longer feels any regrets, so he decided to officially retire after finishing this World Championships in his home country.

Rin Matsuoka has a very clear plan for his future life. In contrast, he knows nothing about Sousuke Yamazaki's choice.

The age of early thirties is equivalent to the twilight years for athletes, but it is still quite young for ordinary people. At the same time, the age of 30s is also the golden stage of career development.Matsuoka Rin asked Yamazaki Sosuke several times before, what do you plan to do after I retire, will you continue to work in the national team, every time Yamazaki Sosuke prevaricates with vague words.This made Matsuoka Rin very angry, but more——

contradiction.

First of all, he definitely hopes that Sousuke Yamazaki can develop his career to the extreme while he is young, so his suggestion to Sousuke Yamazaki is to stay in the national team.It's just that the people in the national team can't settle down any day. From spring and summer to autumn and winter, and then from autumn and winter to spring and summer, they run around the world almost all the time.And once he retires, his life will calm down. In this way, he will have to face the problem of reunion and cooperation with Yamazaki Sousuke.

——I don't want to spend more time with Zongsuke.

This is what Rin Matsuoka dared not say.He knew that as long as he said it, it would shake Sousuke Yamazaki's choice. In that case, he was really selfish enough.

In which year, month, day, hour, minute, and second, did his dependence on one person grow so frighteningly?

Thinking about this, Matsuoka Rin fell asleep in a daze.

"..."

After turning off the TV, Yamazaki Sousuke didn't say anything or do anything, but quietly watched the face of the person leaning in his arms who was sleeping soundly, but who seemed to be sleeping restlessly.

Five days later, the Fukuoka World Championships ended as scheduled.

In addition to the excellent performance of the players as always, one direction that the media is also paying close attention to this time is: Rin Matsuoka, a member of the Japanese national swimming team, wants to say goodbye to the international swimming world.The epoch-making move made by this athlete has been remembered by countless people over the years, and his retirement press conference naturally attracted a lot of attention.

"...I am very grateful to my coach, my teammates, and many, many people. Without their understanding and acceptance, even with Chairman Leohart's approval, I would not have swam like this in the past six years Happy and at ease. I will always remember the time I spent in the national team, and I will always keep in touch with you after I retire.”

"Matsuoka-kun, what kind of arrangements and plans do you and your lover Yamazaki-kun have after you retire?"

Another question was thrown in front of Rin Matsuoka.

It was difficult for anyone to catch, the reluctance that flashed through his smile.

"In my case, I will pursue a career related to swimming, such as coaching. As for Sousuke...he hasn't decided yet, but I think he will stay and continue to play for the national team. This guy's professionalism is really— -hiss!"

Rin Matsuoka instinctively retracted her fingers and took a deep breath.

——Why am I so out of control...

Looking at the bleeding wound on his hand, Matsuoka Rin just felt ridiculous.He was clearly at the press conference and was answering reporters' questions, but he was distracted and thought of a private matter, and because of his distraction, he was accidentally scratched by the sharp edge of the A4 paper placed on the small round table finger.

"Band-Aid! Does anyone have a Band-Aid?"

"I brought it."

Someone in the auditorium stood up, and Ishikawa Kyotaro looked him up and down.

"Oh? Did you bring your medicine kit to the press conference today, Yamazaki?"

"Well, after all, it's a very important thing. It's not convenient to carry it around. It's better to put it in something. So although it's troublesome to carry a medicine box, I still brought it."

very important stuff.

The people in the audience smiled and explained to Ishikawa Kyotaro that the already depressed mood of the people on the stage sank severely.

Matsuoka Rin couldn't help but think that for Yamazaki Sousuke, he was born in a medical university. If it weren't for his love for medicine, he would not have devoted himself to this industry.

Medicine box, yes, how important a bulky medicine box should be to a doctor.

Sure enough, it would be better to let him stay in the national team, right?

Watching Yamazaki Sousuke come up without saying a word, put the medicine box aside, knelt down on one knee, and watched without saying a word as the other party carefully opened the box he regarded as a treasure, took out the Band-Aid from it, and prepared it for him. Dealing with the wound by himself, when he finally made up his mind secretly, Rin Matsuoka didn't realize that although the wound on his finger had been wrapped up with a Band-Aid by Sosuke Yamazaki, his lips had been worn out by his own teeth. Drain blood.

After Yamazaki Sousuke finished using the band-aid, he turned back to pack the medicine box.His hand seemed to have touched something in the corner, so he looked at the corner and smiled slightly, then reached over with both hands and took out a small box that was very inconsistent with his solemn gesture.

"Sorry, Rin, I know this is your retirement press conference, but can you lend me a moment to do something else?"

"What's up?"

Rin Matsuoka stared at the delicate little box.

He didn't know why he suddenly became so nervous, he just felt sensitively that something was about to come out.

He just watched Yamazaki Sousuke open the box an extremely thin crack, and then slowly, little by little, opened it.

There was a diamond ring that shone brightly in his gloomy eyes.

"That's—a marriage proposal."
